Title: General Ali Abdollahi: A Profile of the New Commander of Iran’s Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters
In a recent message, Brigadier General Ali Abdollahi, the newly appointed Commander of the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, extended his congratulations to the Iranian nation and the Islamic Ummah on the auspicious occasion of the birth of the Holy Prophet of Islam (PBUH) and the commencement of Unity Week.
A Message of Unity and Strength
General Abdollahi’s statement emphasized that Unity Week, intrinsically linked to the revered name of the Holy Prophet (PBUH), provides a valuable opportunity to reflect on his luminous teachings. He highlighted the critical need to further strengthen unity and solidarity within Iran and across the Islamic world.
Highlighting National Cohesion
The commander pointed to the nation’s recent experiences as a testament to its resilience. He described the “sacred unity” demonstrated during the recent 12-day imposed war, orchestrated by the heroic and cohesive Iranian people, as a direct continuation of the spirit shown during the eight years of the Sacred Defense and against various other conspiracies targeting the country.
This powerful display of national solidarity, General Abdollahi stated, not only thwarted the hostile objectives of the Zionist and American adversaries but also presented a beautiful and enduring image of Iranian national cohesion to the world.
Armed Forces in a State of Readiness
Reaffirming the commitment of Iran’s Armed Forces, General Abdollahi noted that they are continually inspired by the unifying teachings of the Quran and Islam. Operating under the guidance of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, His Eminence Imam Sayyid Ali Khamenei, these forces remain in a state of complete readiness to protect the nation’s sovereignty, national security, and the achievements of the Islamic Revolution.
The commander assured the Iranian people that the nation’s defensive capabilities are now more robust and advanced than ever before, stating, “The dear nation of Iran should have no concerns about the future.”
A Note on Adversarial Tactics
General Abdollahi concluded by addressing what he characterized as adversarial tactics, noting that the enemy is attempting to create turmoil within the country through psychological and media warfare. He contrasted this, stating that the adversaries themselves are grappling with significant internal, regional, and international challenges.
